ADE-4300/ADW-4300 User Guide

Wireless Station Configuration (ADW-4300 only)

This section applies to all Wireless stations wishing to use the ADW-4300's Access Point, regardless of the operating system which is used on the client.

To use the Wireless Access Point in the ADW-4300, each Wireless Station must have compatible settings, as follows:

Mode

The mode must be set to Infrastructure (rather than Ad-hoc)

 

Access points only operate in Infrastructure mode.

 

 

SSID (ESSID)

This must match the value used on the ADW-4300. The default

 

value is Wireless.

 

Note! The SSID is case sensitive.

 

 

Wireless

By default, Wireless security on the ADW-4300 is disabled.

Security

∙ If Wireless security remains disabled on the ADW-4300, all

 

stations must have wireless security disabled.

 

∙ If Wireless security is enabled on the Wireless Router (either

 

WEP or WPA-PSK), each station must use the same settings

 

as the ADW-4300.
